This book pioneers the study of bilingualism across the lifespan
and in all its diverse forms. In framing the newest research within
a lifespan perspective, the editors highlight the importance of
considering an individual's age in researching how bilingualism
affects language acquisition and cognitive development. A key theme
is the variability among bilinguals, which may be due to a host of
individual and sociocultural factors, including the degree to which
bilingualism is valued within a particular context.Thus, this book
is a call for language researchers, psychologists, and educators to
pursue a better understanding of bilingualism in our increasingly
global society.
